My Muscle System in the Mage World

The burly youth stepped to the side as a purple-haired woman slowly walked out under the guidance of his large hands.

"Miss, why are we stopping here?" Aur asked with a smile, his eyes darting towards the little girl's stall.

Rowena looked at Aur with a hint of confusion before gradually moving towards the stall, guided by him.

"Oh, are you looking for a necklace, young miss?" Aur fawningly asked, rubbing his hands together. "Should I select one for you?"

Rowena's purple hair fluttered in the wind as she nodded slightly. "You can choose a necklace. I want to give it to my younger sister."

"I see," Aur nodded as he examined the cases displaying the necklaces.

All the necklaces had shiny, coloured gems glimmering in the light. There might even be diamonds and rubies in some of the necklaces.

If this were his previous world, it would cost a fortune to buy it, but in this world, all these expensive things that could very well allow you to be "rich" were not even worth a dime.

This wizard world was extremely materialistic: gold, diamonds, and silver had no value because they could be mass-produced by wizards if they had the right spells.

These materials were simply disdained by wizards and only held value among mortals.

"Master, what do you need to buy? Just to say, these are fresh necklaces I have just bought. All these jewels have recently been mined and not produced in those laboratories," the girl said with a melodious voice, her eyes twinkling at Aur.

Aur just smiled and patted her head. "What a cute child."

After saying that, he looked at the display of necklaces and started to search.

"I can't find it." Aur searched for a long time but couldn't find what he was looking for, which made him frown a little.

But soon, he calmed down and looked around the streets from time to time as if searching for something.

"Master, did you not like it? Should I recommend something to you?" the little girl said with a smile.

Just as she was about to recommend something, two noisy chatters came from the side.

Initially, the road was silent after the carriage stopped. No one dared to talk, and even the ignorant people became silent after seeing others quiet down.

However, these two didn't seem to care.

Aur looked at the red-haired man and a girl with twin tails with narrowed eyes, then continued to search for the necklace as if nothing happened.

The crowd looked at the two who were slowly walking toward the same stall with visible nervousness.

"Tina, is this the place where you wanted to buy the necklace from?" the red-haired man suddenly looked at the stall where Aur was and asked with a frown.

Tina stopped her nagging and looked at the stall and the little girl. "Yes, brother, that's the place where I previously wanted to buy but ran out of money. Can you help me buy it?" she asked with shining eyes.

"Sure, as long as you like it." The red-haired man scratched his head while mumbling to himself, "As long as you stop nagging at me, I will do anything."

"What did you say?" Tina turned toward her brother, "Leonard."

"Oh no, she called me by my name…" Leonard thought, his face visibly pale.

"Nothing, nothing. Don't you want to buy the necklace already?"

"Yes, I want to buy it," Tina said with an excited expression, "but I feel like you are avoiding something."

Leonard hurriedly went toward the stall, his back already soaked in cold sweat.

"Hmph." Tina shook her head with a proud expression and followed him to the stall.

"So where is your necklace, Tina?" Leonard smiled, completely ignoring Aur, and looked at the necklaces on display.

"It should be that one." Tina pointed, and Leonard followed her finger to a purple necklace.

"Is this it?" Leonard reached for the purple crystal necklace, but a big hand instantly snatched it away.

He frowned and looked at the burly youth with long white hair in front of him.

"Brother, can you give me that purple necklace, which was originally pointed out by my sister?" Leonard asked with a polite smile "You see-"

"Is this yours, or did you buy it already?" Aur asked with an amused smile.

"Eh, no." Leonard was stunned.

Aur was not wrong, and Leonard couldn't refute it.

"Then I will buy it," Aur said lightly and looked at the little girl. "How much is this necklace?"

"It… it will cost you a low-grade mana crystal," the little girl blurted out without thinking too much.

This was simply an exaggerated price for just this purple crystal. This was usually said as the starting point for bargaining and the little girl was proud of it.

But the people in front of her, no matter how blind she was, were not normal. It was okay to scam normal people, but wizards whose status is high—she felt a chill on her back.

Just as she was about to apologise, she heard a gentle voice.

"Okay."

Aur handed her the low-grade mana crystal with a smile on his face.

The little girl looked at the blue crystal with a slight purple tint in a daze.

"Do you want more?" Aur gently said again, giving her two more low-grade mana crystals.

"Eh!?" The little girl's hands trembled, her eyes glittering with excitement.

"Can I buy the necklace now?" Aur lightly patted her head with a smile.

"Yes, yes, this purple crystal necklace is yours now," the girl nodded with a faint smile on her face.

"Can you tell the big brother over there that I have now bought the necklace?" Aur pointed at Leonard.

"Yes," the little girl nodded and then looked at the red-haired man. "I'm sorry, this item is sold to these big brothers."

"Girl, I will buy it for ten low-grade mana crystals," Leonard said with a frown.

"No," the little girl firmly shook her head.

Leonard's face froze on the spot.
